It's pretty obvious from your first post here and this one, that you have an axe to grind. Otherwise, you wouldn't sign your posts with this: I'm glad your a hero because I just fly jets from points A to B
This obviously is the military section and we're doing our best to advise our fellow vets who are trying to transition. The fact is that they are leaving the military with a different set of options than a civilian still building a resume to apply to the majors. We know a shot at a major airline job is a realistic goal when we leave the military and I don't think you posted here just to tell us that. The pilot you replied to stated he retired from the USAF, which means he's probably 43-45 years old and has been flying for at least the last 20 years. He doesn’t need to feel bad about having the option to bypass Expressjet.
Maybe you just need to stay off the military section of this forum if you feel it necessary to bring your agenda into an otherwise useful thread.
Finally, I find your signature statement slightly offensive and you should be embarrassed by it. If you have to end every one of your posts sounding like a whiney female dog, then at least fix the spelling. “You are” is abbreviated you’re.
MIL guys don't like when the favored prince status is questioned. Welcome to the real world.... you are guys are just as good, no better and no worse that the rest of us.
Another MIL guys posted that he was Uber qualified and didn't understand why he wasn't getting the call.... I tried to help.... not sure if he got it....
